I'd say the question is loaded. Whether or not such a species was interested in finding life on other planets, it would be transmitting, and those transmissions would be detectable (with all due caveats covered in the blog post I linked upthread).

Yes, of course you would disagree by assertion, you just can't disagree with logic, argument, or reason.

so what you are saying is that any intelligent civilization capable of producing high technology would necessarily be interested in finding life in other planets, interested in understanding their origin and interested in knowing the names of their ancient kings?

can you support your assertion?

Cars? You mean they defined the notion of traveling between places separated by great distance - and how did they alight on this concept without possessing any curiosity?

yes, that is my point, Aliens could be interested in inventing stuff that would allow them to travel form point A to point B (cars) but that doesn't necessarily implies that they would also be interested in creating devises that would allow them to know if there is life in other planets or not.

I did 3 times LEROY.

Your failure to read does not equate to a failure in my presentation.

Right, so in the paragraph I wrote explaining why your point was nonsensical, you reply confirming it's your point and failing to rebut anything written.
